Junior Symphony 
Presents Concert 

The Pdrtland Junior Symphony 
will be heard in the second concert 
of "its 33rd year on February 16 
at the public auditorium. The or- 
chestra has gained national re- 
nown for its excellence. It is made 
up of the finest young musicians 
of the area, who represent not 
only Portland schools and colleges, 
but also young people from Mc- 
Minnville, Salem, West Linn, Mil- 
waukie, Beaverton; and Vancou- 
ver, Washington. 

The 80 piece orchestra is con- 
ducted by Jacob Avshalomov, who 
played in the ranks of the orches- 
tra as a youth during his Portland 
student days when it was under 
the leadership of its founder, the 
late Jacques Gershkovitch. Grad- 
uates of the orchestra have achiev- 
ed high places in the music world 
throughout the country. Most not- 
able is Robert Mann of the Juil- 
liard conservatory who recently 
appeared on the television pro- 
gram "Omnibus" as a guest of 
Leonard Bernstein. Recently the 
Junior Symphony received a $10, 
000 grant from the Rockefeller 
Foundation for commissioning 
new works, a singular recognition 
rarely given any orchestra, pro- 
fessional or amateur. 

Audiences at the February con- 
cert will have the opportunity to 
hear the Junior Symphony in a 
varied and unusual program. 
Bach's Concerto for Violin and 
Oboe will be performed by Mar- 
lene Majovski and Joan Baker 
with the orchestra; there will be 
one number, "Fantasy for Bras- 
ses" by Robert Ward, that will 
feature the particular sonority of 
the brass instruments playing a- 
lone; Richard Strauss' "Symphony 
for Winds" will present the brass 
and woodwind sections only; and 
for more familiar numbers there 
will be Weber's "Euryanthe" ov- 
erture and Mendelssohn's "Ital- 
ian" Symphony. The program will 
begin at 8:30 p. m. 



This World Is Our Campus 

By Mackcy W. Hill 

President Eisenhower seems to be running into a few more difficul- 
ties both with his official family, his party, and the Congress. This 
may be the only characteristics that are to be associated with the sec- 
ond term of any President of the United States. The House quickly 
passed on the President's proposals with regard to the Middle East, 
yet the Senate is taking a longer look. They want to inquire into what 
brought on the Middle East Crisis. What part has Dulles played in 
aggravating the situation there? The Democrats find it convenient 
to keep the Secretary of State unaer as heavy fire at they can. 

Secretary Wilson's remarks regarding the National Guard as the 
haven of military slackers has presented the Administration in an un- 
favorable light. Eisenhower tried to disavow this accusation only to 
have Mrs. Wilson fly to the defense of her husband. 

With the President's Budget under consideration some conserva- 
tives sec an accute 'danger of runaway inflation and an eventual devas- 
tating depression if the trend is not halted. Herbert Hoover voiced 
this alarm recently. Eisenhower's liberal policies are not liked at all 
by some in his party and his avowed purpose to remake the GOP into 
something more than it now is, does not set well with the stalwart 
conservative element. Some are very unhappy over the so-called New 
Dealish trends that are showing in the new Eisenhower. 



Little Things 

The heart remembers little things 
And wisdom holds them dear 
A tender smile, the hand's brief touch, 
A lovely word to hear. 

Oh, life's most brilliant tapestry 
Would pale, before too long, 
Without the simple, background threads 
That keep it stiong. 



President Ross Reveals Past Progress 



In a chapel talk before the stu- 
dent body, President Ross Mon- 
day told of recent progress in var- 
ious areas of administrative ef- 
forts. The first item of review 
was the proposed girls dormitory 
on which construction was to have 
begun this fall. The problem was 
not that the college could not ob- 
tain the money, Mr. Ross report- 
ed two significant developments: 



Aid for the project the expense 
would be art added $18,000 to $22,- 
000, which the board of the col- 
lege felt was exhorbitant and un- 
necessary. Therefore the dormi- 
tory plans, which have not been 
dropped, have been brought to a 
temporary standstill. 

On the matter of accreditation 
proceedings, which are progress- 
ing rapidly, President Ross report- 




THE GEORGE FOX COLLEGE Student Council meeting to discuss 
problems facing them in the coming semester. The group meets Friday 
noons in the dean's office starting with ASB Prexy Fred Newkirk and 
going clockwise around the table we have Chris Childs, treasurer; Jack 
Newell, frosh representative; Meredith Beals, vice-president; Fay Han- 
sen, L'Ami editor; Dean Williams, adviser; Janice Bishop, soph repre- 
sentative; Lenore Davis, secretary; Bill Hopper, junior representative 
and Steve Ross representing the seniors. 



ed, but that in securing Federal 
the increased cordiality in the at- 
titude of the leaders of the High- 
er Commission toward us, and the 
appointment of President Llewelyn 
of Oregon College of Education 
as our new adviser along with 
Dean Gilfillan of Oregon State 
college who has been assisting us 
in our accreditation proceedings. 

The college president was pleas- 
ed with the stable situation in re- 
gard to enrollment this semester 
in comparison with previous se- 
cond semesters. 

Remaining moments of the 
chapel were devoted to the ex- 
planation of the role of the Coun- 
cil for the Advancement of Small 
colleges, or CASC, of which Geo- 
rge Fox college is a member. This 
newly-formed body has an active 
membership of 53 non-accredited 
small colleges. Milo C. Ross is a 
member of its executive board 
and the chairman of the group 
which admits members to the 
organization. He expressed the 
opinion that this group is becom- 
ing a significant force in modem 
American education in its research 
on various methods and techni- 
ques in testing, teaching, and bus- 
iness and administrative problem- 
solving. Also important is the 
fact that such concerns as U. S. 
•£3teel and International Nickel 
are donating funds to small col- 
leges through this body, making 
it possible for them to share in 
corporation grants.

Convention Commands Crowd 



Hopper Elected 
Crescent Editor 




Bill Hopper, a junior at George 
Fox college was elected editor of 
the student publication, The Cres- 
cent, at a student body meeting, 
Thursday, January 30. 

Bill took over for Hideo Kaneko, 
when the latter resigned due to ill 
health, in September and has had 
much experience in the journalis- 
tic field, having served on The 
Crescent staff continuously since 
coming to George Fox. 

Hopper elected to keep his entire 
staff, and "would like to increase 
it." 



Nine guest missionary speakers 
participated in the all-day mission- 
ary convention sponsored by the 
Foreign Missions Fellowship on 
the George Fox college campus 
last Saturday. 

Guest ' speakers were Dr. Win- 
field Am of Portland Youth for 
Christ, Harold Wilhite, Bill Bask- 
ett, Inez Butler of Wycliff Trans- 
lations, Alice Ross, former mis- 
sionary to Kenya Colony, Africa, 
Richard Stewart, Janet Eckel, 
Harold Shingledeckei , and Mr. 
Retherford, pastor of Vancouver 
First Friends church, recently re- 
turned from Africa. 

Dave Wing, George Fox junior, 
was master of ceremonies for the 
occasion. The convention theme 
"Upreach and Outreach" was 
closely followed throughout, in 
stage design as well as in classes. 

Featured on the morning pro- 
gram were three class periods, 
presenting discussion of specific 
areas of outreach: evangelism, 
Bible translation, medicine, pion- 
eering, Youth for Christ, educa- 
tion, child evangelism, and liter- 
ature. 

Following the classes, a sermon 
of missionary challenge was de- 
livered by Bill Baskett, 

The afternoon session featured 
a message by Mr. Retherford on 
the establishment of the native or 
indigenous church. 

In conclusion a film, "Into all 
the World" was shown, present- 
ing needs of many countries for 
missionary laborers. 

Saturday's conference was at- 



tended by students invited from 
other colleges and by Newberg 
townspeople as well as George 
Fox college faculty and students. 

The Foreign Missions Fellow- 
ship annually sponsors such a 
convention to enlighten her own 
'missionary recruits as to the 
training required for various fields 
of service, and to broaden the vis- 
ion of others interested in miss- 
ionary outreach. This year's FMF 
president is Earl Perisho, sopho- 
more from Black Canyon, Idaho. 

Dale Campbell acted as song- 
leader and James McDonnel was 
at the .piano. Special music fea- 
tured the Harmonettes ladies' trio 
and the Freshman Four male quar- 
tet, both of the George Fox col- 
lege, deputation department. 



College Enrollment 
Holds High Level 

"The administration is very hap- 
py over the strong enrollment for 
this, the second semester," as per 
Milo C. Ross, president of George 
Fox. The statement was made 
during his Monday morning chapel 
address. 

While complete figures arc not 
available at present it is felt that 
some 125 will be attending classes 
at George Fox this semester, "the 
strongest showing in recent 
years." 

The starting of night school will 
bulge the registration somewhat. 



Chain Reaction 



pfiaojj Pelade 



By Edith Johnson 

The Daily Oklahoman-Oklahoma City Times 

This is published in the interest of Brotherhood Week, February 
J 7-24, sponsored by the National Cohfetwlre of Christians and Hfiws 

It was a bitterly cold day in the winter of 1930 
that the First International Congress for Mental Hy- 
giene was held in Washington, D. C. 

While scanning the program during the lunch 
hour and trying to decide which of the groups meet- 
ings listed for the afternoon I should attend, my eye 
was attracted to something new — Conference of 
Christians and Jews including Protestants, Catholics, 
and leaders of the Jewish faith. Invariably intrigued 
by novelty, my choice fell on this session. It might sup- 
ply exciting "copy" for my column in the Daily Okla- 
homan- 

.Arriving at the room designated in the program 
I found every seat taken- So together with others I 
sat on the floor. How eagerly all of us listened while 
the leader of the meeting and president of the confer- 
ence, Dr. Everett R. Clinchy, a Protestant minister, a 
Catholic priest, and a rabbi spoke. Here was the live- 
ly beginning of a challenging movement, one destined 
to engage men and women by the hundreds of thou- 
sands. In that early meeting in the hotel, it seemed as 
if all who listened caught fire from the speakers as 
they presented the cause. Year after year the re- 
sponse has grown until the National Conference of 
Christians and Jews has expanded into a network of 
62 regional offices, with similar organizations oper- 
ating in Canada and across the^. seas in the free na- 
tions of Europe and Asia. Its spiritual force is grow- 
ing steadily. 

The emphasis of 30 years ago which was on toler- 
ance is today dn appreciation, one for another. Mem- 
bers have taken seriously the words, "Thou shalt love 
thy neighbor as thyself." Effort is continuous, em- 
bracing all forms of bigotry which the conference 
strives to dispel. 

None other than conference members are more 
sensitively aware of the simple fact that the problems 
of our time as in all time arise out of the people's re- 
lationships, one with another. If those relationships 
were right there would be no prejudice and bigotry; 
no needless cruelty, and no flagrant injustice- Mean- 
while the "chain reaction of brotherhood" is growing 
and when finally there shall be peace in the world the 
Conference of Christians and Jews shall have played 
no small part in bringing that to pass- 
In the meantime there must be planning, organ- 
ization, teamwork, persuasion and dedication to one 
of the noblest ideals ever conceived by the mind of 
man. 



Brotherhood Is Our Business 

. For the past three issues we have featured edi- 
torials written by famous Americans on the subject 
of brotherhood. As a Christian college we should 
stand firmly behind an effort such as this, which is 
emphasized to the public through the medium of 
"Brotherhood Week," February 17-24. 

Individually, we should each one carry on a per- 
sonal campaign, not only during the "special week," 
but 365 days a year and 24 hours of every day. "Broth- 
erhood** in my opinion is one of the basic foundations 
of our Christian belief-

Joan Be/fx 



A bored high-school-graduated 
office worker, a noon hour, a phar- 
macist and a conversation worked 
together to open a new life career 
for Joan Dunkel Beltz, head of the 
division of natural sciences and 
associate professor of science at 
George Fox college. 

A Nebraskan by birth, Mrs. 
Beltz, with her school teacher 
father, her mother and one sister 
moved to Bayfield, Wisconsin, 
when she was six. Her father be- 
came a farmer, an occupation 
which he still holds. Mrs. Beltz 
finished high school and started 
work as an office secretary. 

After about a year of work, 
she mentioned her dislike for this 
job to a pharmicist during her 
noon hour. When asked if she 



wanted to be a pharmicist, she re- 
plied, "Yes." At this point the 
conservation was interupted and 
she had to leave with only a name 
of another pharmicist who might 
be able to help her. 

She found this man immediately 
and he enthusiastically secured a 
job and a scholarship for her. 
Thus, Mrs. Beltz entered the Un- 
iversity of Wisconsin as a student 
of pharmacy. She continued col- 
lege work on the East coast where 
she worked her way through as a 
lab instructor and stock room 
clerk in chemistry. She graduated 
from Washington Missidnary col- 
lege in 1948. 

Opportunity for graduate work 
came in another ,- Providential 
way" while she taught biology

Life to Service 

and English in a boarding acad- 
amy in Colorado during 1948-49. 
A professor at Walla Walla col- 
lege corresponded with high school 
biology teachers in his attempt to 
write a Christian textbook for that 
course. Through this correspon- 
dence Mrs. Beltz learned of fellow- 
ships offered for graduate work, 
applied and was accepted. She 
graduated in 1951 from Walla 
Walla college with an MA degree 
in zoology. 

A typical result of attendance at 
college was her aquaintanceshirj 
with her husband, Alex Beltz who 
is now serving as assistant profes-/ 
sor of Science on the GFC faculty. 
She said with a smile that she 
was first impressed with his pa- 
tience for he was the first one 
to take time to show her how to 
tie a square knot. This acquaint- 
anceship blossomed and they were 
married in 1955 shortly after Mrs. 
Beltz had joined the GFC faculty. 

Mrs. Beltz's hobbies include 
reading, mostly in the field of 
natural history. She is book review 
editor for The Naturalist, a quar- 
terly magazine of science inter- 
ests. She also enjoys bird watch- 
ing and likes her studies in evol- 
ution. Like most professors, she 
dreams of writing a book some- 
day to add to the short articles 
which she has already written. 

Mr. and Mrs. Beltz spend their 
summers doing something in their 
field to furthur knowledge in na- 
tural history. Both are looking 
forward to starting on their Ph.D. 
in the near future. 

Mrs. Beltz is active in school 
and church activities. She is chair- 
man of the orientation and guid- 
ance committee and of the faculty 
seminar committee. She is super- 
intendent of the S. S. in the Sev- 
enth-day Adventist church in 
Newberg. , 
Her main objective as a teacher 
is "to help students to develop a 
definite philosophy of__§fiieJi.ce_and 
religion which will be consistent in 
every respect." 



Wohmy Willie Wutchel WoejuUy 



Hi! Bet you haven't met me be- 
fore. That's because most of the 
time I'm busy working when 
you're around, but sometimes I 
stick my head up and watch what's 
going on. I can really see quite 
a lot from my home in the flower 
bed on the west side of the en- 
trance to the Ad Building. You 
say you never saw me? Well, I'm 
Willie the Worm, and my special 
joy in life is giving my views on 
the world as I see it. 

But speaking of worm's-eye 
views, I never in my life saw such 
a thing as happened last Tuesday 
morning. Long before anything is 
usually stirring I was jarred out 
of a sound sleep by the heavy 
footfalls of ever so many mascu- 
line clodhoppers tromping their 
way up the steps and down into 
the Home Ec. room. "That's migh- 
ty peculiar" I thought, and afraid 
some mischief might be underway, 
I crowded close to the window 
sill and watched. Just as I suspec- 
ted. There was mischief a-brewin'. 
But as I watched it seemed that a 
lot of other things were a-brewin', 
too, and the smell of that apple 
cider heating made me wish it 
was fall again and I had a nice 
overripe apple to crawl into. 

But I soon forgot about that. 
Whatever were those boys doing? 
David Wing was shredding pota- 
toes for dear life while Quentin 
Nordyke was figuring out exotic 
recipes from the side of a Bisquick 
box. Dick Mott was turning an 
eggbeater in the butter while he 
shouted orders to everyone else. 
Jim McDonnell and Jim Ellis were 
busy fixing link sausages and 
eggs. Somebody was making some 
gravy — musta been a married man 
like John Lyda or Doctor Rob- 
erts — but I didn't see who be- 
cause I was trying to figger out 
why Quentin was drilling little 
holes in the tops of all those cook- 
ies. 

I was just about to decide that 
there had been a mutiny against 



the dining hall crew and these 
characters were takin' things into 
their own hands when I heard 
some very feminine noises com- 
ing from Kanyon Hall. "Willie," 
I sez to myself, "There's some- 
thin' in the wind like you never 
seen." Do you know that every 
single one of those girls was 
scrubbed and polished and comb- 
ed and perfumed just like they 
were a-sittin' in the parlor waitin' 
for their favorite bachelor to just 
"drop in." 

Peeking over the window sill 
again I noticed that the fellows 
had heard 'em comin' too, and I 
just about split my sides watching 
Dick Mott straighten his apron 
and smooth the napkins on the 
table (after all the trouble he had 
figuring out which side it went 
on, it's no wonder he was proud 
of em). Jim Ellis like to fell flat 
on his face tryin' to get to the 
record player before Dr. Roberts 
did to turn on breakfast music 
(by The Sons of the Pioneers and 
the Riders of the Purple Sage) for 
the ladles to listen to. 

Well, perty soon the gals were 
all sittin' around the table and 
the meal begun. First course was 
that hot cider. Made me so hun- 
gry I got all tied up in a knot and 
didn't hear a word of the blessing 
'cause I was trying so hard to get 
straightened out. And then those 
guys started loading the table 
with all sorts of stuff — you should 
have heard the exclamations from 
those gals! They wei'e just sure 
they couldn't eat very much, but 
how could they help it. The eggs 
were just the most appetizing le- 
mon yellow you ever saw, and so 
fluffy and good. (I won't tell you 
how many Meredith Beals piled 
on her plate. She was at the end 
of the line, so no one else saw). 
The sausages went around and 
the plates got fuller. The plain bis- 
cuits went around and the gals 



snickered (I really did think they 
were cookies) and took one apiece. 
Then the hash-gray (not brown) 
potatoes came by. Never did you 
see such expressions on the faces 
of those girls. They didn't know 
potatoes would stand for such 
treatment as that (But they ate 
'em anyway, and Chris Chllds even 
took a second helping). Just as 
they got settled down to eat this 
whoppin' breakfast, Quentin Nor- 
dyke served his cinnamon roll 
specials, and James McDonnell 
set a platter of pineapple biscuits 
on one end of the table. Now the 
gals were heaving sighs of resig- 
nation. How would they ever eat 
so much? But they did. All the 
plates were fairly well cleaned 
off, and all the tummies looked to 
be pretty well loaded when Jim 
Ellis started dropping milk cubes 
into the crystal glasses, and Dr. 
Roberts served the date biscuits, 
while somebody poured milk over 
the ice cubes. I didn't see who 
that was because I was watching 
Joyce Hester and Faye McCord 
devour biscuits buried under Dan- 
ish butter. In case you don't know 
what that is, it's Dick Mott's ver- 
sion of scrambled butter and ex- 
ploded maraschino cherries. 

There was more of the same, 
but I could keep you entertained 
all day with what I saw that 
morning. The climax came when 
Meredith Beals actually blushed! 
You know, I've been watching her 
for three years now, and I never, 
saw that happen before. Anyway, 
it got later and later and the girls 
went tripping off to their classes. 
The flunkies rolled up their shirt 
sleeves and plunged their lily- 
white meathooks Into the soapy 
water. I watched 'til It was all 
over, and then I crawled back In- 
to bed and resumed my Interrup- 
ted sleep. Gotta get all caught up, 
because I hear tell there's gonna 
be another breakfast one of these 
days, and I can hardly wait to 
see that one!

Deputation Teams 
Remain Active 

The Harmonettes girls' trio will 
bring messages in song this Sun- 
day morning at the fifth anniver- 
sary service of Eugene Friends 
church. 

Other deputation work which 
has been carried on during the 
past four weeks included the musi- 
cal numbers sung by the Freshman 
Four quartet Tuesday evening at 
a Christian Business Men's ban- 
quet in Hillsboro. 

Hideo Kaneko brought the even- 
ing message at Sherwood Friends 
church last Sunday. He and Fred 
Newkirk assisted in the opening 
exercises of Sunday school at 
Hillsboro Friends January 27. 

That same weekend, from the 
23rd to the 27th of January, Pro- 
fessor Paul Mills, director of de- 
putation^ was the evangelist for a 
young people's revival at Alberta 
Evangelical United Brethern 
church in Portland. He was im- 
pressed by the large number of 
high school young people in the 
church and reports that several 
were saved. 

The Freshman Four sang in the 
morning service of the Newberg 
Free Methodist Churchy January 
20.

Student Union 
Building Planned 

Many changes have taken place 
in the south end of the dining: 
hall during the past week as stu-' 
dents, faculty and administration 
have been working together on 
the student lounge project. The 
work of converting the south end 
of the dining hall into a Student 
Lounge began Saturday, February 
2, when President Ross, Fred New- 
kirk, and students cut out a por- 
tion of the wall of the dining 
hall, knocked the cement out, 
and closed the gap with plywood 
in preparation for doors. Since 
then the foundation for the entry- 
way and the cement walk have 
been poured, and the walls of the 
entryway have been built and 
erected. 

Furniture has been donated by 
interested parties, and more is 
needed, according to Student Body 
President Fred Newkirk. To date 
a 9x12 rug a davenport and a leath- 
er chair are among the donated 
items. Lamps and end tables, mag- 
azine racks, chairs, hassocks, and 
such would be welcome donations 
according to members of the stu- 
dent council. 

The College Board has okeyed 
the plans for a permanent student 
union building to be erected. Funds 
for its maintanence as well as 
construction are to come from an 
added student fee each semester 
over a number of years. President 
Ross has had indication that sev- 
eral opportunities are available to 
finance the original construction, 
and has already had some consul- 
tation with Donald Edmundson, 
the College architect, in regard to 
blueprints.

Dentals Squeeze 
Past GF Men 

The unbeaten Met Conference 
leaders, Oregon Dental, got the 
scare* of a life-time from an in- 
spired aggregation from George 
Fox college, Saturday, January 26, 
in Hester Memorial Pavillion, but 
spurted late in the contest to take 
a 70-62 win. 

The Quakers jumped off to a 
quick lead and held on doggedly 
through the greater part of the 
fray before wilting under the ex- 
perience and rebounding skill of 
the Yankers. 

The local outfit held a 32-28 
half-time bulge, built on the shoot- 
ing of Jack Newell, Ron Willcuts 
and Bill Hopper, who kept the 
Quaker crew in the ball game 
right down to the wire. 

Newell bagged 18 counters, Will- 
cuts got 17 and Hopper picked up 
15. 



Quakers Flatten 
Hapless Baptists 

Turning in their second one- 
sided rout of the Western Baptist 
Seminary quint, the Quakers of 
George Fox piled up 85 points 
while the Baptist. Crew could only 
muster 16. 

With the score 17-10 early in 
the game, it looked as though the 
Quakers were in for a rough game, 
but the Baptists were able to 
score exactly nothing until the 
start of the fourth quarter at 
which time the Quakers led 56-10. 

Bill Hopper with his second con- 
secutive 26 point night led Quaker 
scoring, while Chuck Tuning gar- 
nered 17, Paul Morse 16 and Jack 
Hoskins picked up 11. 

The loss was the eighth straight 
for the iuckless Seminaires. Quite 
a different story from their tough 
teams of the past. 



A Vote of Thanks 

We thank you for the breakfast, 
We're really glad we came. 
We teased about the biscuits 
But we et 'em all the same. 

The rolls and the potatoes, 
The eggs and sausage links, 
The jam and Danish butter, 
The milk and cider drinks 

Were all so simply scrumptious 
That we're still full "up to here". 
That's the biggest, bestest breakfast 
We've eaten this school year. 

So hand it to ^he Juniors. 
They filled three kitchen wishes. 
They cooked and served it grand 
And washed up all the dishes. 

To the Junior Men, signed by 

the Junior Women.

Quaker-Cascade Contest on Tap 



A new, friendly and, it is hop- 
ed, long rivalry will be initiated 
tomorrow (Saturday) night when 
the Quakers lay their 15-5 season 
record on the line and engage 
Cascade college of Portland. It 
will mark the first athletic con- 
test between the two schools. 

Ralph Beebe, the Quaker men- 



tor, will lead with Bill Hopper and 
Jack Hoskins at the forward slots, 
Paul Morse and Jack NeweH at 
guards and Captain Chuck Tuning 
working at center. 

The Quakers took a bitter blow 
at the semester break, when two 
regulars and one first-line reserve 
dropped out of school. However,

Basketball season is quickly drawing to an end now and there are 
touches of baseball already in the air. The professional baseball teams 
are already started talking of spring training camps while in most 
other places baseball is still some six weeks to two months distant. 
The sun has broken out from behind the clouds and shown that it still 
exisits causing the spring bug to kind of bite because the day is so 
beautiful. I guess, according to the old ground hog we still have a few 
weeks to wait before the sun really 
comes to stay. But the sun really 
came out and all baseball players 
are oiling their gloves for those 
days when they will again be out- 
side. 

However, before baseball can 
get underway there is still basket- 
ball season to finish. The George 
Fox college Quakers still have six 
games left on its schedule. The 
Quakers stand third in the Metro- 
politan conference, behind the Uni- 
versity of Oregon Dental school and 
Reed college. The Quakers have fin- 
ished the round robin series with the 
Dental school, losing both times to 
tlio Dentists but giving them a scare 
before falling behind. The Foxians 
arc looking forward to their remaining game with the Griffins of Reed 
college, who are led by the league leading scorer, Art Wilkes. The 
Griffin's only losses have come at the hands of the Dentists. The first 
game between these two teams was won in the last seconds by a ball 
steal and lay-in by one of the Dental guards. The Quakers and Grif- 
fins do not meet again until the 23rd of February, but the Blue and 
Gold quintet of George Fox is looking forward to renewing the rivalry 
and upsetting the Reedsmen. 

Coaches have many different ways and ideas of breaking up de- 
fensive patterns set up by other quintets. One basketball coach you'll- 
never find holding the ball against a zone defense, as per his own very 
definite declaration, is Jack Friel of Washington State. "The best thing 
. to do against a zone," says Friel, "is to pass the ball rapidly and keep 
passing it. Whether you break the zone or not, you'll tire it out. Play- 
ers tire more on defense than on offense. 

« * * s * 

The technical foul is a penalty never heard of very much in bas- 
ketball and a thing that doesn't occur very often. But this current 
basketball season the Quakers have had nine opportunities to capitalize 
on these fouls that have been committed by other teams. 

The way a technical foul can be committed is by unsportsmanlike 
conduct on the playing floor or by a team's rooters or coach. If a 
player doesn't report to the scorckecpers and the scoring table, or 
should use d istasteful language on the playing floor, or in any way 
abuse his privileges while playing ball. This foul isn't counted against 
the athlete in his limit of personal fouls bu it hurts His sportsmanship 
standing and that of his team. 

« * * * 4 

At the recent Banquet of Champions held in Portland for the out- 
standing athletes of the Northwest, Duffy Daugherty was the guest 
speaker. In his speech after the dinner and the presentation of the 
awards to the outstanding athletes of the Northwest he made the state- 
ment that every athlete should have three bones. The first of these 
bones was a funny bone. He said every one should have a funny bone 
because they should be able to laugh things off and look at the funny 
side of things and that there will be brighter times to come. The second 
bone they should have is a wish bone, by having a wish bone they should 
wish to be the best kind of person they can be at all times on the 
athletic fields and off. They should aspire to greater heights and be 
the best that they oan be. And the last and most important bone of all 
is a back bone. By having a back bone they can stand up and do the 
things that will make them the best. By having a back it gives them 
the initiative to move forward and try for achievement.

the Foxmen seem to be as effec- 
tive as before, as some of the 
remaining cagers have rallied to 
take up the slack with improved 
performances in recent games. The 
Quakers are working on a four 
game winning skein. 

Bill Hopper set a new career 
scoring record against Multnomah 
college, getting 26 points to run 
his total to 1027 in the past three 
seasons. Two games later, he has 
run the total to 1082. 

Coach Beebe has expressed plea- 
sure at the improvement of Jack 
Newell, who moved into the start- 
ing line-up in the Multnomah Bi- 
ble tilt, January 25, and has aver- 
aged 14.5 points per game in the 
last five contests. Also, coming 
in for orchids was Paul Morse, 
who has done a first rate job in 
plugging the hole left by Ron 
Willcuts.

Scoring Record 

Bill Hopper, the Quakers junior 
forward, scored 26 points to set 
the all-time career scoring record 
as the Quakers fought off repeated 
rallies by the Multnomah College 
five to take a MCC game 71-59. 
The game was played on the Ed- 
wards Junior high floor because 
there was no heat in Hester Mem- 
orial. 

Hopper topped by one point the 
three year record set by Roily 
Hartley who rang up 1026 points. 

Jack Newell, the fast improv- 
ing frosh guard, holed 20 points 
for runner-up honors.

Multnomah Cagers 
Tumble to Fox Men 

The Quakers of George Fox ac- 
complished a feat indeed rare in 
college basketball circles as they 
chalked up two varsity victories 
in one night. 

The originally scheduled game 
for Saturday, February 2, was 
with Northwest Christian college 
and they forfeited, so Coach Ralph 
Beebe got on the phone arid sched- 
uled a non-conference game with 
the Multnomah college outfit, who 
wanted another crack at the Fox- 
men. 

However, the Blue and Gold 
paced by a 29 point performance 
by Bill Hopper, far outclassed the 
Portland club and took the ball 
game 74-50. 

Jack Newell and Jack Hoskins 
shared runnerup honors with 12 
markers apiece. 



Gals Get Games; 
Cop Practice Tilt 

Challenged by six lively girls 
from the Nazarene Church, the 
Quakerettes of GFC rallied to a 
scoring victory the eve of Jan- 
uary 24 in a protruse game of 
basketball. 

As the score board rolled in a 
perpetual motion for the home 
team, the Nazarenes were at a 
standstill. Thus, the first game 
of the season for the girls at 
home proved that 6 a. m. prac- 
tices were worthwhile, and not 
out of season. 

Construction is underway every 
Tuesday and Thursday evening 
for the Quakerettes on the "Fox- 
ian maples" with hopes of future 
encounters with such teams as 
Linfield, Cascade College, Reed, 
Sherwood High, Newberg high, 
and possibly others.

MCC Triumph 

The George Fox college Quakers 
expanded a slim three point, 29- 
26, halftime lead, with a blistering 
attack on the twine, to put to 
rout the Ambassadors of the Mult- 
nomah School of Bible, and walk 
off the floor with a neat 72-52 
MCC Counter under their belts. 

Getting double-digit performan- 
ces from four starters, the Quak-

ence win as against three losses 
and left Foxmen in a familiar 
position, that of third place in tne 
conference standings

Cal Alsleben, the flashy Qua- 
babe forward, was the man of the 
hour for Coach Steve Ross' 
charges as they downed the Rose 
Valley Friends five 51-43 Satur- 
day, February 2. 

With the GF juniors trailing 
35-33, cool Cal took aim and fired 
away on a long two-hander that 
parted the cords a split second af- 
ter the buzzer had ended the regu- 
lation game. 

Cal then canned a bucket in the 
overtime which brought his team 
back even and then in the second 
overtime potted six points as the 
Qua-babes pulled away to victory.
